Silver-coated hip revision for infection
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests a new silver-coated hip implant for people who need a revision due to a chronic infection around the joint. It may help control the infection while replacing the implant.

- You need hip revision surgery for a long-term infection around the joint
- You are healthy enough for surgery (ASA class I, II, or III)
- You can attend follow-up appointments

This trial tests if a new silver-coated prosthesis reduces infections after surgery. It is for patients with weakened immune systems or diabetes.
This study looks for tiny markers in your blood and tissue that can tell whether a hip replacement is failing because of infection or another reason. By taking extra samples during your planned revision surgery, researchers hope to improve how infections are diagnosed in the future.
This study looks at people who need a second (revision) surgery on a large joint replacement like a hip, knee, shoulder, ankle, or elbow because of a suspected or confirmed infection. The goal is to learn more about these infections and improve care.
This trial tests a new type of temporary spacer that is coated with an antibiotic (vancomycin) to treat infections in hip, knee, or shoulder replacements. If you have an infected joint replacement, this spacer might help clear the infection and prepare the area for a new joint later.
This trial studies whether a special hydrogel coating on a hip implant can reduce infections after hip revision surgery. If it works, it could help you heal with fewer post-surgery infection problems.
This study compares how to replace an infected hip or knee implant using a two-step surgery with a shorter waiting time. It aims to reduce the time between surgeries while still safely treating the infection.
